The danger of public Wi-Fi hotspots has been exposed by a seven year old girl following a short video tutorial, reports ITV.
The experiment – part of a public awareness campaign by VPN provider ‘Hide My Ass’ – provided seven year old British girl Betsy Davies with a laptop, a tutorial, and a subject willing to be hacked in an environment imitating that found in many of the United Kingdom’s 270,000 public Wi-Fi spots. The results were worrying: not only did Betsy complete the hack, she managed to pull off the attack in just over 10 minutes, according to Information Age.
